Mycobacterium Avium Complex Pulmonary Disease, non-tuberculous mycobacterium, contezolid
Brief summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if adding contezolid works to shorten the length of treatment in mycobacterium avium pulmonary disease in adults. It will also learn about the safety of extended usage of contezolid. The main questions it aims to answer are: Does adding contezolid to standard regimen decrease the bacterial load, lesion severity and improve the life quality of patients with mycobacterium avium pulmonary disease? What medical problems do participants have when taking contezolid for an extended length? Researchers will compare standard regimen plus contezolid to standard regimen alone to see if contezolid helps further decrease the bacterial load, lesion severity and improve the life quality of patients with mycobacterium avium pulmonary disease? Participants will: Take contezolid and standard regimen (azithromycin, ethambutol, and rifampicin) for 6 months, contezolid is administered every day while other drugs are taken three times a week OR take standard regimen three times a week for 12 months. Visit the clinic once every 1 month for checkups and tests.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| culture conversion | end of month 6 | 2 consecutive negative sputum mycobacterial culture at least 4 weeks apart, or one negative bronchoalveolar lavage fluid culture/NGS. |
| QOL-B+NTM module | end of month 6 | Improvement greater than MID in at least 7 out of 12 domains in QOL-B with NTM-module (must include respiratory symptoms and NTM-PD symptoms) |
| CT lesion absorption | end of month 6 | \>30% decrease in lesion size or number of nodules measured on CT |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|

| time to positivity of mycobacterium culture | up to month 12 | — |
| Questionnaire: Quality of life-bronchiectasis (QOL-B) and NTM module | up to month 12 | Improvement greater than minimal importance difference in at least 7 out of 12 domains in QOL-B with NTM module (must include respiratory symptoms and NTM-PD symptoms) |
